recital pieces
Concert program works
Recital pieces are musical compositions selected for performance at a recital—typically solo or small ensemble works showcasing a student's or performer's abilities.
The term appears most often in classical music education, where teachers assign recital pieces suited to a student's level: She's been practicing her recital pieces for months.
The pieces are usually memorized for performance.
